Elijah had this same feeling where after witnessing Gods greatest miracle in his life he found out the the King’s wife Jezebel was out to kill him. This news filled him with panic and he fled to the woods. Finally after on the run Elijah said “I have had enough Lord, take my life and I am no better than anyone else.” Then an angel appeared to him, and said “get up and eat” He saw some baked bread and a jar of water so he ate it and laid down again.”

The the angel said again “Get up and eat and drink more or the journey ahead will be too much for you.” – 1 Kings 19:4-8

Oftentimes we get depressed because we are not content with what God has blessed us with. We often compare ourselves to others just like Elijah but on social media which kills our joy. Maybe something caught you off guard or just another thing happened the way you didn’t want it to go. When we feel hopeless, this is where the child within us wants to ball up and cry just like Elijah.

But just like Elijah God knew this difficult season was coming, and when you feel like you cannot go on, Jesus always gives you enough strength to carry on. The quote “God will never put you in something you cannot handle” is a lie. God always puts us through things we cannot handle because that’s the point. To be reliant on him for absolutely everything.
